    Henry out for the rest of the season

    From the beeb:


    Injury rules Henry out for season

    Henry's season has been hit by injuries
    Arsenal captain Thierry Henry has been ruled out for the rest of the season because of groin and stomach injuries.
    The 29-year-old tore muscles in Wednesday's 1-1 draw with PSV Eindhoven, which saw the Gunners crash out of the Champions League.

    Henry, who signed a new contract last summer, has struggled with a sciatic nerve problem all season.

    Manager Arsene Wenger said: "We are confident that he will be ready for the start of next season."

    Defeat in the Champions League left Wenger's side with only their Premiership position to fight for, having already exited both domestic cups.

    Henry endured a gruelling season in 2005/6, leading his club to the Champions League final in May before heading to the World Cup where France reached the final before losing to Italy.

    He played a total of 56 games for club and country, scoring 38 goals.

    This season, he has managed 31 games, finding the net 14 times.
    Oh I don't know.

    Looks like 3rd place just became that little bit more secure.
    Oh I don't know.

      This is exactly the last thing Henry needed.
      I fear we have now seen the best of him.

      'Take that poof bandage off, and what do you mean YOUR knee, it's LIVERPOOL'S knee !'

      "Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.

        Henry has been ****e this season. Fact.
        He's scored some goals - true - but from the Thierry Henry we all know and admired from a couple of years ago, the player we've seen this season pales into insignificance.

        I fully expect him to be at Barca next season.
        Liverpool born and bred.

            I wouldn't be surprised if this is the last time we have seen him in an Arsenal shirt.

            I know a lot has been made about Arsenals kids this season (although its a complete con) but Henry is Arsenal's catalyst, just like Gerrard is ours. If he was to go, Arsenal could struggle next season if he isn't relaced with a top drawer replacement.
            Twin boys - now arriving late August 2008.

            Its gonna be Fernando and Gerrard if I get my way!

              Henry has been the greatest player to grace our league for many a year - it's pretty sad that this season he's been a tiny shadow of his former greatness, we'll see what happens next year I suppose.
